Hey all just wondering how many trowels you have to cover different jobs - I currently only have three - a 12mm solid bed for floors, a 6 mm for walls and a 4mm for mosaics.

I saw one today which had teeth that looked like a saw? have any of you used this and what for?!

Cheers

Just bought a BAL thin bed/solid bed trowel and using it for the first time today. Gives good coverage, but you can't hang it on the bucket!
